The pyramid of Khufu > Great Pyramid of Giza > Sphinx > Egyptian Museum
There was a big surprise this morning, opened the curtains, the Find window is the famous Giza pyramids, we live on the edge of the pyramid, what a pleasant surprise.
The pyramid of Khufu
Pyramids of Giza, one of the seven wonders of the world, including the pyramid of Khufu, haifula pyramid, Menkaure's Pyramid. I finally saw the real pyramid, the excitement really can't express. Pyramid of Khufu is the biggest, it's really big, to go very far to take its panoramic views. Look at building these stones, is very large and heavy, I really do not know what 4,000 years ago in ancient Egypt people built pyramids, mystery of this is ancient history.
Hawkers of the pyramid is particularly high, some more holes, pay attention. Although out of the guide will tell you the best just to ignore them, or even do not respond, or it will be caught. We are not met, but have you met. He very kindly came up to shake your hand, you still confused situation and shook hands, and he wrapped you up, be sure to give money or even themselves to steal a purse from your hand, take the highest denomination that piece. So be sure to pay attention to their wallets, best money and small money open, take out money not to. This happen, the police are unable to manage.
The entrance to the pyramid of Khufu. Right, Khufu is in. Egypt how can not go in the pyramid, while the tour guide told us there is nothing (really), but we are not ready. Cost 100 Egyptian pounds a person, the camera (can not take pictures inside, took a penalty, also deleted photos) from the entrance. Here I cannot detail narrates the appearance, after all the money, but does not go in, how can you understand the secrets of the pyramids, the mysterious Tomb passage, that ancient sarcophagi, all I can say is there are spectacular, one is the history of our great treasures. Personal point of view, shouldn't be like Pharaoh's pyramid Tomb, and may be more of a special-purpose areas.
The great pyramid of Giza
Close-up of the finished pyramid, we drove to a platform of the pyramid look. Here you can see three pyramids in perfect shape, but also a good place for pictures. Oh, the pyramid to be playing bad.
Hawkers riding a camel in the distance, but we don't have time to sit, there are hawkers selling commodity, a pair of Egypt dress up.
Pyramid, desert, camels, which is forming a pair of ancient Egypt paintings, through thousands of years, I've met you here.
The Sphinx
The Sphinx the Sphinx, weathered face is very serious now, watch out, because buried in the sand at the bottom, still very preserved, each brick are clearly seen. Very close to the pyramids, also has a lot to do near the Mummy before the temple, but now only ruins left.
The Egyptian Museum
To the finished pyramid, we went to the tour only two shopping malls, flavor and the Papyrus painting store. Essence is because Muslims do not drink, so there is no alcohol, will not evaporate. Open Cap saving can also be very long. Smell, it's pure. Women love the smell of things, so I quickly bought, store manager also was good after I paid and called me, gave me a bottle of scent, you can choose a flavor. I found Egypt people really friendly. More than here, where our tour bus drove past, local people are very friendly with us waved Hello, a warm country was.
Papyrus painting we bought a small, prices are more expensive, and not very useful, but at least specialties, is meant as a souvenir. Then we went to Egypt's national treasures – Egypt Museum.
Papyrus paintings, beautiful, luminous.
The doors of the Museum, Egypt features red walls in the Sun very solemn.
Security checks at the entrance, there are police with guns. Egypt in many places, such as gate of the scenic spots, the gate of the hotel, is security, but estimated that saw the Chinese people do not like the bad guy, so-so. Egypt has a lot of policemen with guns on the streets, when the first day I saw very strange, a little jittery, but a few days later got used to it. Police often follow our security people are very friendly, some are willing to a picture.
Museum has a lot of the Valley of the Kings (we will go back to) the burial, many beautiful pharaonic antiquities, the most famous young Pharaoh Tutankhamun's Golden mask. It is said that he is only 18 years old when he died, the State is very strong, so when his tomb was found shocked the whole world. There are many exquisite funerary tomb and coffin of pure gold, gold rings, gold-shaped coffin, gold mask, until today is shining. I want to say it's really good money, unfortunately, gold masks, as Egypt treasures Museum, can't take pictures, only to see fun.
The Crystal coffin before the Millennium, a beautiful Pharaoh Princess-shaped coffin. Oh, and we also went to see the mummies, another 100 Egyptian pounds a person, and photographed 50 Egyptian pounds, the original money really fast. Mummy looked like seasoned Bacon (evil ... ) Skin is black, can be seen wrapped in gauze, teeth, nails, and saved very well indeed, not very scary. Wisdom of the ancients is,,,, and the mummification of the medicinal ingredient still is a mystery.
Egypt Cairo with the beat of the street, was supposed to go to Khan El Khalili market, but met with the evening rush hour, the car didn't go too heavy.
Today is the Chinese calendar's new year's Eve, travel very carefully considering our Chinese friends, carefully put up tents in front of the pyramid on the ground. Pyramid light show, a unique point of view presents the different pyramids, warm tent also has delicious food and features of Arab song and dance performances, beautiful belly dancers feel Arab enthusiasm put you on the spot.
This is a really unique, not the same new year's gift, very impressive, very good. Slowly after a look at these pictures, I can remember feeling, mood, that travel no sense it.

Khan El Khalili market
Get up in the morning, we went to Khan El Khalili market, this is a characteristic small Arab market, there are various characteristics of Egypt crafts. Although 95% is made in China, but many special export products are also very interesting. Can we come too early, a lot of shops is not open. Market entrance of a great Arab style mosque and many Muslim morning prayer (Muslim Prayer five times a day, so pious), many people see the Chinese people feel very strange, walking in the small alleys of the market, rates are so high.
In the market we have only half an hour was too short, too late to buy anything and had to sit in front of a coffee shop in the market. This is a very Arab coffee shop and ordered a cup of authentic Arab tea, tea slowly, slowly coming out of the Arab mosque, this life is also very tasty. Arab race really is the face of very high values, look around, men, women, and children are particularly good-looking, very charming eyes.
The Aswan Dam
Stroll the market, we went to the airport to fly in Cairo to Aswan. Aircraft also came in time for the Charter flights, and delayed, to Aswan, it's 2 o'clock in the afternoon, too late to see the Temple of Abu Simbel, that's the biggest regret of their visit.
The Aswan Dam, sparkling in the Sun, breezy and very pleasant.
Nubian village
And then we went to the Nile, rippling Nile, stunning the crowd. We took a boat on the River Nile, and went to a Nubian tribe village.
Referred to Egypt's farm
Arab Uncle Hookah, Hookah is a favourite pastime of the Arabs, nothing to two, and comfortable all day long.
Nubians are now Egypt one of the minorities, where they maintained a unique culture. Nubian Egypt Arab black, said the language is not the same, but for us, anyway, do not understand. The whole village was built in the desert, at the entrance road is sand, Sha Chilai washing feet at every house.
The Arabic word in the Nubian village, unfortunately, bad brain, just learn to forget. Khan a. ...
Tonight, we lived on a cruise aboard the small black romantic, room back when we did look at the towel animals.

The Valley of the Kings > Queens Temple > Luxor Temple > Karnak
Boat trip to Luxor, was up at 4 in the morning today, we are going to take a hot air balloon, sunrise on the Nile.
This is the trip at their own expense, although a little expensive, but worth it.
This felt views, known only to the people. Each is the size of a hot air balloon as if following the sun rise in the East, unrivaled panorama unfolding beneath your feet, just like a fairy tale world. Panoramic view of these most precious treasures of human history and even green fields on both sides of the Nile has maintained its original appearance in 3,000 years, become the background of most of the gods.
The Valley of the Kings
Luxor was the Ancient Thebes, ancient Egypt's capital. Ancient Egypt believed the eastern side of the Nile is the home of strangers, so there is a lot of temples and palaces, Luxor is the Arabic "Palace" meaning, House of the dead on the West, so have a temple of Pharaoh was buried in the Valley of the Kings and Queens.
Here is the entrance to the Valley of the Kings.
The Valley of the Kings is Egypt Pharaoh's Tomb, famous King Tut's Tomb in the Valley of the Kings is discovered. The Valley of the Kings at their own expense the trip, $ 50 a person, you can visit 3 Pharaoh's Tomb free. Ramses 3, 4 and 5, but free inside look less, exquisite frescos of incomplete. (I think tickets pit. ) We also added 50 Egyptian pounds a person, is said to be the most exquisite murals of Pharaoh's Tomb of Ramses 6. The Pharaoh zuzusunsun were buried here, some have been grave robbers looted, leaving only the exquisite frescos tell of the distant past on the ramps.
Tomb of Ramses 6, starting from the ramps, both sides are beautiful murals, Tomb passage very long, go straight down, went a long walk to the burial chamber. I saw the Tomb, there is a movie, discovered the sense of surprise of national treasures, burial chamber is large, wall and ceiling murals of the Pharaoh's life is told. In front of the Tomb, full of murals, the whole picture of a whole lot of ancient frescoes, an era long ago, some had mottled. But most are preserved, bright colours, after thousands of years of weathering, still retained a very bright, what can be seen when the huge project.
PS: every Tomb door there are people watching, there someone on here is not allowed. But the murals are beautiful here, you can't help but want to surreptitiously took cell phone pictures photo, then they will look at you secretly, slapped when you think they haven't seen, or pick up the phone, they will come, to you fine. Best body with little money, secretly they will bargain with you, take a little money they can keep your photos. Remember do not give them your money, or else take a lot of money. One of our teammates were fined 100 Egyptian pounds, only a penny, fined 20 Egyptian pounds.
Temple of Queen
From the Valley of the Kings, and we went to Egypt the only Temple of the Queen. The ancient Egypt's Pharaohs 18 age, because of the rule, the Queen has been doing men's dress, her statue each long beard. His mausoleum on the East of the Valley of the Kings, ancient Egypt only a three-story Temple.
Luxor Temple
Back saw Muang Nong statue in Luxor. Muang Nong stone turned out to be a stone shrine in front of the two, unfortunately, after the temple was destroyed, leaving only two stone statue of was found to be slowly restored. Whenever the wind blows, the slot will send out like a cry of stone's voice, leaving endless imagination.
Dog is also very flattering.
Luxor Temple, felt in the Centre of Luxor, like town square feel.
No specific look, appearance, and then we went to Karnak.
Karnak
This is one of the largest temples, Karnak group. Specific details of the introduction Baidu self-examination. I just want to say, this is Egypt.
Rehabilitation model of Karnak, is very ambitious.
The famous Avenue of RAM, it's beard is the statue of Rameses, this is the embodiment of the Sun God. Death on the Nile there is here in this classic scene.
Temple Center road
Giant stone statues of Ramses
You know, why is Egypt called the four ancient civilizations, it has more culture than China's long history, although Egypt is not ancient Egypt when the glory, but the splendid culture of history are kept very good, authentic.
